Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

That's just not true. If it was it would mean we had the same culture under Poch as under Ange. That is patently false, whatever the Poch shortcomings were, it was night and day better culturally from everything we can see outside-in, than this garbage.

Levy is fundamental yes. But he is not wholly responsible for team culture by any stretch.

What did we win under poch? Or was it the same culture of being losers , losing semi finals, qtr finals and finals
A losing culture were failure is acceptable

I've heard this argument before on this forum from Richard Arlison

The argument goes like this:

- Ange has won fuck all
- Poch won fuck all
- So what's the difference

Now, I really want us to win trophies also. But pretty much a necessary precursor to that is to play well, and win lots of games. As Poch did. And while winning pots is a big part of it, it isn't everything. The standard of play and the results are also important.

So yes, the culture under Poch was obviously very different and far more positive , even if we didn't quite have what it takes in that short period, before Levy strangled him, to win a trophy.

I didn't say anything about there being no difference between poch and ange. One was a good manager for a time, the other not, please don't move the goal posts like that. It's unbecoming.

I said the spurs culture under enic is that of losing, getting to a final and losing is seen as a good season. Finishing in a CL spot but winning fuck all is seen as a good season.
This is a shit mentality, football is about winning silverware

Look, the point is whether the fan experience was far better under Poch

AND IT WAS

Call it culture, call it winning mentality, call it competent coaching, call it luck.

Whatever

I don't like when people come on here and start saying - or at least IMPLYING - the ONLY thing that matters is winning trophies. It's obviously not true.

What's the point of sport if not to win? So you'd be content with finishing 4th for the next 10 to 15 years not winning a single thing ?
I guess we just have different wants from the football team👍

What a prick. We’ve been in loads of semi finals recently. That’s the problem.

I’ve read the quote and watched the video a number of times and I can’t work out if it was just a really poor choice of words (and ignorance as to how many semis we have got to) or if it’s a dig at the club by a man who knows he’s likely in his final days at the club and who should have been relieved of his duties a long long time ago by the incompetent cretins in the board room.

Due to the fact that there is absolutely zero issues with his grasp of the English language, I’m leaning toward the latter.

Trying to ignore my feelings towards Ange for a while but he's not making it easy with comments like this.

To add to this, I was thinking he's gone full Conte but at least Conte was right in most what he said. We've reached 7 semi finals in the last 9 years so Ange is full of shit as usual.

He’s a cunt.

Talks us down all the time.

Utter, utter cunt.
